"Since you've already made up your mind, what's the meaning of your current attempt to stop me?"

Xia Tianyao felt that his mother was constantly testing his patience, and finally, he couldn't bear it any longer and spoke sarcastically.

"After today, Second Sister will definitely know that we're plotting against her. If we don't act today, it won't be so easy next time!"

In order to make Xia's mother understand the current situation, Xia Tianyao didn't mind making his point even clearer.

"Let's do as Tianyao says!"

While Xia's mother was dawdling, Granny Li made the final decision.

"The money from the gambling den must be repaid! Otherwise, our whole family will just be sitting here waiting to die!"

“We’re all family, so we should naturally share the burden! As a member of this family, Mingzhu should contribute her share!”

"Besides, the family has been supporting her quite a bit over the years! If she were a grateful person, she should understand our difficulties and be considerate of us!"

Li Pozi's words, to some extent, resonated with Xia's mother.

Seeing this, she no longer dared to stop him.

They had no choice but to obey Xia Tianyao's orders and take Xia Mingzhu away to change her clothes.

Soon, the people who were supposed to meet them arrived.

With Xia's mother supporting her, Xia Tianyao personally carried Xia Mingzhu onto the car.

Seeing Xia Mingzhu being pulled away and disappear around the corner, Xia's mother finally couldn't hold back and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief.

"Mother, don't worry, that Master Zheng only asked Second Sister to stay with him for a few days, nothing will happen!"

"He'll bring my second sister back in a few days, and then he'll give us the rest of the silver dollars!"

"You'd better keep this safe. This money is our whole family's lifeline!"

Knowing Xia Tianyao's personality, Xia's mother could only give him repeated instructions.

This money was a matter of life and death for the whole family, which made Xia's mother take it very seriously.

To raise so much money, they even enlisted Xia Mingzhu's help. If anything were to happen to this money, all their efforts would be in vain!

"Mom, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of this money!"

After saying that, Xia Tianyao patted his chest with an air of importance.

Because we've found new sources of ocean production, the atmosphere at home has improved a lot.

In contrast, Xia Mingzhu, who slowly awoke in the Zheng residence, was not so lucky.

When I opened my eyes, I was greeted by an unfamiliar mansion.

I felt strange sensations all over my body; there wasn't a single good spot on my body, it was covered in bruises.

She wasn't an innocent young girl; all of this told him only one thing—she had been violated!

But the most important thing right now is to figure out what exactly is going on.

Xia Mingzhu closed her eyes and pressed her temples, trying desperately to recall the details of that day.

In the instant she fell, she clearly saw the expressions on the faces of Xia's mother and the others.

There was no surprise, no astonishment, only a relieved expression.

She would never believe it if you told her that they had nothing to do with her current predicament!
